Hurco Companies, Inc. (Indianapolis, IN) adds a new machining center to its performance VMX line. The VMX6030i has 30 in of travel in Y, with 60 in of travel in the X-axis and 24 in in the Z-axis.

According to the company, the addition of the new model was specifically due to requests from mold customers who wanted more Y-axis travel without jumping to the larger footprint of the VMX64.
